Headscarf with Tight Clothing
By Mohammad Yusha • Jul 30th, 2009 • Category: Misc, Worth A Second Look • 26 CommentsSome girls wear the headscarf and along with it, tight tops, tight pants and tight jeans. I am not trying to lecture girls about what they should wear. What they wear (or don’t wear!) is up to them. All I’m saying is that if a girl wants to wear tight clothes, she must not wear the headscarf. This is simply insulting the headscarf and Islam.
Some girls roam around with guys, including those who dress decently and wear a headscarf. They make a joke of themselves and the headscarf, making people wonder why they chose to wear the headscarf in the first place.
Some parents force their daughters to wear the headscarf. There is no such thing as force in Islam and more importantly, force doesn’t work. When a lot of girls go to school, they leave their house with the headscarf on, and the moment they are outside, they take it off. After school finishes and they are about to enter the house, they put it back on.
Some girls who are forced don’t take the headscarf off and hang out with guys and/or wear tight clothes. The blame goes to parents for forcing their daughters to wear the headscarf. I’m surprised parents pay so much attention to the headscarf and not to the way their daughter dresses up. These parents have obviously not understood that it is more important for a girl to dress decently than cover her hair.
Obviously, not all girls are forced. Many choose to wear the headscarf but they don’t have enough common sense to know that it is more important to cover the body than their hair so they must not wear tight clothing with it, and if they do, then they should not wear a headscarf.

I am very grateful to The Pakistani Spectator and Ghazala Khan for allowing me to write on TPS. There is a lot of awareness and information on politics and social issues but very little on magic. Magic is a reality and is destroying people's lives. It is a duty to help and educate people on this subject. God bless you all.

yes u are rite a girl should cover her body properly if she is going to wear headscarf, but unfortunately they just want to cover their heads while her dupattas are hanging along like a rope, these kind of girls are ruining the image of headscarf, abayas and hejaab,
Hi,
Why scarves and hijab of girls are so important and they are riled upon. But no flogging for Muslim men who donot keep beard?
Well your retarded little insight into what girls should wear or not is self contradictory, on the one hand you say there is no force in Islam and then on the other hand you say “hat if a girl wants to wear tight clothes, she must not wear the headscarf” Sounds pretty forceful to me.
In my opinion just let people be and try writing something worthwhile.
Fawad:
The issue is not about forcing someone. It is about making an Islamic symbol a part of fashion. Start reiting Holy Quran in a musical tone and if someone asks you not to tell him that it is none of his business. Well its is.
For these very actions when seen by someone who is familiar with Islam can lead to different prespectives, and you may know that if you have had an interaction with somone not so much familiar with Pakistani society and culture.
@Johann:
Forcing a girl to headscarf or a man to beard are both unjustified, unethical and unislamic. However stopping someone from making fun of religion is allowed, and the issue here is a request by the blogger for simply not micing fashion with hijab.
Regards.
Agree with Fawad in toto.
Talha - How’s it any of anyone’s business how I practice my religion? It’s such attitude that encourages people violently interfering to force their understanding and depriving other to live their lives the way it suits them. After all, I am going to face my God with my track record and not yours Talha or you think that you might be punished for mistaken identity. Come on, Yaar!
@Aftab:
My knowledge of Islamic teaching tells me, and mind you it comes from an authenticated source, that one can not force anyone to do a deed such as obersve pardah or go for hijab etc., for it is indeed every indivisual’s will and every man/woman will appear on the day of Judgment with his/her own deeds.
However it is also stated that if you see someone doing something wrong, muster enough courage to go and tell him/her not to do such act for it will create a false/bad image of Islam.
And that is exactly how I deem the issue mentioned in the above blog to be. They should be politely requested not to wear so for the reasons so mentioned, rest is upon them to decide, for I am no one to force my will on someone else.
Regards.
Talha - regards for you, too.
Now, the way I see it is simple - we can not be such a literalist about what is “stated” - let’s use a bit of comon sense. Wrong or right is matter of one’s understanding and perception. What you consider ” enough courage to go and TELL !” might be just not acceptable to the other guy and what s/he perceives “courage” might force her / him to turn around punch your nose (if very polite) or pull that famous little ‘toy’ most of us keep to enhance our sense of potence. Now, what we got here?
Listen you with your sense of propriety and clarity of thinking and advice can go to your fundo little world and do black magic to correct whatever you consider wrong. Yes, my suggestion is that it’s none of your dirty little business to decide who should wear what.
LOL! You don’t get it, do you?
Are you suggesting that girls should continue to wear tight clothing and a headscarf on top of it to make fun of the headscarf and have people of other religions laugh at them, and then we get a joker like you supporting those common sense lacking women.
Go back and stay in your voodoo land and stop worrying about who is wearing what - otherwise like I said above someone might think it is alright to blow your hijab covered little ass.
#16- Not much left to comment - by the way it’s their face which has more beauty & charm.
Islam has provided some basic code of dress for both men and women and as long both wear dresses which are with in the bound, I don’t see any problem. The important thing is dress code is for both men and women not for only women.
“Any time a reading of the Qu’ran takes you into violence and away from love, you’re reading it wrong.”
The clothes that girls (or guys) wear is up to them. It is the wearing of the headscarf on top of tight clothing that is being talked about. Please keep comments relevant to the topic.
wearing a headscarf is a must because it keeps us modest…theres no point in wearing it if you wear tight clothes with it. The point of hijab is modesty but tight clothes contradict the hijab. That wouldnt even make sense in the first place. And for some people they may say well I’m just going step by step but to go step by step you have start by wearing loose clothing and THEN go to hijab, not the other way around.
Whatever way women dress its their own choice. Its none of this obtuse ***** business!
@ 19: You *** just*** to your black magic world!
@Hassan: Please get a pair of glasses to enable you to read the article properly. I never said anything about the way women dress up. I am talking about the headscarf along with tight clothing.
@Sadia: Absolutely correct.
@Hassan: Or maybe it’s your comprehension skills that need working on.
moron extremist!
